I had my new scooter torn all apart as I had to replace the head , in the process I put in a new racing clutch with yellow 1500 springs all 4 and added a racing clutch bell as well and a new variator , I left off the cover as it looks dope , will this harm it? On a side note gps said went 58.7 mph

for a short test ride, its fine. the cover helps keep it from twisting.

Long term I see it creating issues not only from the strength point of view( tv) but keeping the major part of the dirt and debris out

I ran belt drive cams in all my ducatis but one old bevel drive 900 ,,, and there was no strength issues as the belt covers were plastic and were not structural and I never rode with them open,,,, literally a few hundred yards up and down my street to make sure everthing was kosher and adjusted correctly then it was back on the lift to be buttoned up,,, I didn't feel like replacing a hotrod desmosedici mill for a errant pebble or whatever getting in there between belt and cams it would have been a disaster,,, both to the bike and my wallet,,,, once I stopped sobbing like a little girl first of course

Its got that snorkel in the front and a vent out the rear of the cover. Ive rented allot of these in the tropics for my dive trips in the rain gasket or no gasket it gets water in there. at seas level a big rain floods short term some streets, they will plow thru a couple feet of water. Oh ya it trashes them, figure limestone island and sand, mix with a little salt water and organic black dirt.

Technician in the Tropics. ha, as slice of a alley, dirt floor soaked in oil , single light bulb hanging from middle of room a good Mayan technician may coast ya $25 a week US. They never throw anything out, piles of junk parts and scrapped scoots. FIgure a cheap Sunny 150 @ $750. US. They rent $40. per day. a few weeks and she's paid for. you've made a bunch of money by the time its falling apart. and most times can stick it to a ignorant gringo tourist for the repair.
